Hi, I had bypass on 11/18. Everything has been going pretty smoothly. Just starting to get some urges on being hungry for first time. Turns out cream of wheat with soymilk & Protein Powder did not make me feel full. Tried something new and didn’t work. Had to add refried Beans & 1/2 Protein Shake for Snacks as soon as I could to stop the hunger feeling. How are you doing?

I had mines in October, 2018 going pretty good so far am 8 pounds from my goal I lost 155 pounds so far. I surpassed what they told me I was going to lose, but I have my own personal goals. I think the pandemic and the gyms closing on and off sure put a damper on everything now . I am missing the gym its cold and I love to workout so am doing from home just not the same but still hanging on. Keep up the good work.

Just joined this board about 15 mins go! I had RNY on 11/17. My clinic had me on clear fluids 2 days, then 2 weeks of full fluids, 2 weeks of puréed food, and I just started soft food on Friday for 4 weeks. Glad to have a recovery buddy 😀 No pain, no hunger so far I don’t think. Can’t really tell when I’m full so sticking to 1/4c-1/2c per meal. Lost 17 lbs with my pre-surg diet and have lost 31.2 since 11/17

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
